All hail the mighty Mos Def

I think Mos Def might be the realest hip hop artist in the game right now. His music constantly pushes boundaries and causes you to think on many different levels. I recently picked up his latest album "Ecstatic" off of iTunes, and probably his best so far. It's hard to believe that he could ever top his debut album "Black on Both Sides" but this piece of musical genius is definately tops. With smooth lyrics over Madlib and J Dilla beats, and cameos from other great hip hop artist like Talib Kweli and Slick Rick; "Ecstatic" is a non-stop roller coaster ride that fills your mind with knowledge and positive lyrics. These are the kinds of works that we should be appreciative of and support. I recommend this album to anyone real hip hop fan looking for a real hip hop fix.

Test


Just wanted to see if this works. I recently discovered that I could post blogs from my Blackberry, which means I can pretty much post on my blog anywhere and anytime I feel like it. When I think about this only two words come to mind.........
